Editorial Reviews

Review
"For anyone...interested or involved in modern church-state questions, this is an indispensable reference."--Choice
"This book contains an interesting set of documents on an important topic. Maclear has assembled a group of 186 offical documents that, read together with the help of Maclear's generally clear and concise introductions, can serve as a stimulating introduction to church-state relations in the West in the last three hundred years."--Church History
"The whole is a carefully constructed and well organized compilation. It fits very well a course in the history of the modern religious bodies and their relationship to the state."--The Catholic Historical Review
.,."a useful translation of many of the main documents on this vast theme, from the Gallican Articles of 1682 to the 1990 Soviet law on the freedom of conscience and religion."--Journal of Ecclesiastical History
